wire++;
if (wire == (wireTotal / LEDs)){
Each pass through loop, increment wire. If wire is 14, do something.
Then,
if (wire > wireTotal){
wire = 0;
When wire gets to 71, reset to 0.
I guess I am missing something.
It seems to me that you should have an series of LED states, for each of several values of wire, and that yout should reset wire at some different value.
Code that compiles is completely different from code that works properly.
